If you aren’t familiar with Rich Eisen, it may be because he’s more widely recognized for his voice! His career in sports broadcasting and his fun personality have made him one of the greats on ESPN and now the NFL network. Currently, Rich hosts NFL Total Access, NFL GameDay Final, Thursday Night Kickoff, The Sprint Halftime Show and Post game show.
Rich’s 40 yard dash started seven years ago. A fun loving challenge involving Rich running the 40 yard dash in his suit and tie (at the scouting combine) has become an Internet sensation! This game turned into a way for fans to “Win a Day With Rich.” Videos from around the web flooded in as people submitted their fastest times all while wearing their work attire.

Can you imagine peacefully working in your office only to see random people in a full out sprint passing your window!??? I would die laughing, then I’d want to try it myself!
Fit Tip Daily applauds Rich for starting this fun and inventive contest. Even if it gets people up and running for 10 seconds, it may be more then they do all year! On the flip side, I could see people training all year long to improve their times so they can have a shot at winning a day with Rich in 2013.
